I love my green powermatic 80. Although in all of the time I wear it, no one notices. After a year of buying one watch per week and getting into watches, and I’m in my 50’s and it’s a new obsession, I’ve bought watches ranging from divers, dressers, gold, homages, khaki’s, pilot’s, smaller, larger, thicker, thinner. I could go on. And the only person that notices that I wear them are me. Buy for you. And just enjoy.
No one sees the difference in a appearance like the watch owner think It would…. But no one around who notice you’re new preys from you cyberspace hunts ? Find some people around you who you can share in real life you’re passion, it doubles the joy sir!
Bought this watch 1 month ago, my first automatic. And I love it, despite how easily it gets scratched. Can’t really complain because of the price point. I believe this is a “if you know you know” watch.
I own this watch and I love it. It's hyped, and for a reason: it's just fabulous value for money. I like the design with the contrast of angular brushed surfaces and the round polished bezel. The light play on the dial never bores me, with it´s waffle pattern combined with a subtle sunburst, which makes the deep color shift constantly every time the light hits it differently. The light play on the bracelet is just lovely, and the powermatic 80 movement runs like a dream, consistently at about -/-1 sec./day.
This is the watch I got last November. It is my first watch and I love it. I got the black dial so it could match more outfits, but 6 months of wearing and it loving it! Thanks Hodinkee for highlighting this!
So glad Tissot is getting some good recognition. I own three different models including an automatic chronograph. This PRX is a knockout production and unbelievably affordable. These are all Swiss Made. Right now, from a famous watch dealer you can purchase an Automatic Chronograph T-Race MotoGP with a Swiss Made ETA Caliber C01.211 automatic chronograph movement for under $500. Read that again. It is a massive 49mm, but what a great knock around watch for that price. The Blue Dial PRX is a great looking dial, it also comes in a very nice green dial as well. I love my Tissots..!
@@robertschmidt9584 indeed, here’s a watch we think you might like that the community has moved on from like 2 years ago 😂 - not saying it’s not a great piece, but damn talk about slooooooow
The fact that the first thing he said is “I know what your thinking, there’s gonna be haters watching this video, there’s gonna be haters in the comments” just show how out of touch he is. This watch gets nothing but praise in the community for being a people’s champion and for ticking a lot of boxes for not a lot of cash.
I've always liked the PRX with the waffle dial, seems like a tremendous value and something that's super versatile...definitely a great starter or watch, or addition to an existing collection. Nice vid!
I love the timing of this. As Chris ward is promoting the hell out of the twelve, here comes hodinkee, "hey, let's not forget the prx, don't fall for the hype of the twelve."
I did buy this for my ~6.5 in wrist when it first came out, it doesn't exactly "hug" the wrist due to the thickness and it kinda hangs over the wrist more than I wanted it to. So yes a bit smaller would work better for my wrists too
Congrats. And...Your pic shows a strat. Awesome. Thankful for interests. They make life better. I hope to have both someday. Had a Black Bay, but had to sell. I look forward to the simplicity and practicality, and....honestly the design is killer. I've had a few years to think about it ...I study watches obsessively...and guitar....and Bible....but damn.....now that I can think about it as the dust settles......with the world economy taking a shit....I just want a good watch......this is it. Had to sell the Tudor a while back.
I remember seeing the PRX when it first release, I bought the white dial instantly.... then I found out they were releasing an automatic later that year. I ended up returning the white dial quartz in favor of the black powermatic 80. For a while I was trying to justify why having quartz was better, but I realized if I was playing this much "mental gymnastics" I might as well get the automatic since it was in my budget. No regrets and it is my favorite watch. If I could only keep 1 watch from my collection, it'd be my PRX.... though a very close second is my Seiko SPB119.
This is the most I've enjoyed one of Danny's videos. I think I'm a fan now. -- The Seiko Astron one was good journalism, this one was great personality.
As much as I like the design, I tried own and like the 40mm quarts, Powermatic and 35mm I sold each of them. They just don’t hug the wrist. The caseback sticks out so much from the mid case and the end links don’t fold. Hope tissot makes improvements over the years so I can have one keeper.
@@alanv3185 I wouldn't pick a tag heuer as your first watch, they tend to cut corners in comparison to other brands. I can't really give you a suggestion straight away, since taste is subjective. It also depends what part of the watch you care about the most, since your not going to get a watch for $2,000 that really excels in all parts of the watch (bracelet, dial, case, movement etc) Let me know what 1 or 2 things you want the watch to excel in and ill find something for you :)
@@LONprod Honestly, the Movement might rank 1st in terms of importance to me. Dial 2nd and bracelet 3rd. I like dive watches more. Sportier watches in stainless steel silver suit me best. However, lately I've been kinda drawn to black rubber straps with a rose gold case so I wouldn't mind that either.
@@alanv3185don’t worry about movement so much. It doesn’t matter at that range all brands offer great movement. Please don’t buy a tag and waste your money
The “thank God” at the end was reflective of getting an assignment you don’t want to do that you finally turned in. Perhaps speaks to this piece coming out only a month ago but the PRX 80 has been a thing for years.
@m.e.p.r the one in the picture had a black waffle dial. Best thing was, because of the smaller diameter, and probably a little bit thicker than the 35mm quartz, it gave me a slight Aquanaut vibe from the side. If the trend of smaller watches catches on, Tissot will make piles of money. It looked really good.
I'm turning 18 soon, I'm working and I'd like to get a good quality and good looking watch as a reward, ideally with an automatic movement. At the same time I would like the watch to last a lifetime with good treatment. Is this the right watch for me?
Great video but you didn't show the actual Seastar that this watch was based on. If anyone's wondering - the watch it's based on is effectively a 1:1 copy of the 35mm quartz.
I have a datejust, white gold Yacht Master on oyster, Tag, sieko, but out then all I love the Tissot. Something about not being a snob because I know It’s price point but the value you get! Great watch!
Overall awesome piece. I think if the indices had lume and were more substantial that would help. Wish it didn't have PRX and Powermatic 80 on the dial...maybe a dial colored date disk too.
I'm looking to get this as my first watch but I'm seriously stuck between this and the Certina DS Action Diver 38mm. I eas previously looking at solely the PRX but the Certina has AR Coating and better loom which will help in more utility. Also with my 6.1" wrist, the PRX's lug to lug is somewhere about 51 due to the integrated bracelet. So I wanted to know if I should get the PRX Powermatic 80 for my 6.1" wrist? I'm yet to fully grow so in a year or 2 my hands will certainly grow up a bit. Or should I look for thr Certina?
You might pull the prx off but I have 17cm wrists and I feel like it’s a perfect case size for me. It all depends on the shape of your wrist (round or flat). If you care about the lume, I suggest you go with the Certina, since the lume on the prx is disappointing imho.
Обзор на часы спустя пару лет после их выхода. Вы что, только сейчас начали их продавать? :))) Ну а если серьёзно, то клевые часы. Купил маме и сестре по 35 миллиметровой модели с кварцевым механизмом. Жду себе автоматический в том же размере.
This watch is what it is…a good value prop for a Swiss beater watch (I own one so no hate here) that greatly resembles another brand. Even though the PRX has its history from the 70s, even then it was a grab for the popular design language made popular from the other giants. Still, if you can’t appreciate what they have done, the value, then I’d argue you’re not really a watch enthusiast.
My Sideral looks like a $35 watch, but I live on the water, water skiing couple times a week, it's get blasted with water, and the watch keeps the water from getting in to the Powermatic 80 just fine . I hardly ever take it off.
I bought the Tiffany quartz but on my wrist it doesn't sit quite right on my wrist with a flat case back. To me looks better close to than from a distance.... doesnt tacky do it for me.
I have the same blue dial one. It's an amazing piece that just feels and looks so much more luxurious than what the price would suggest. Hodinkie needs to do more videos on affordable/obtainable bangers. Certina DS Action comes to mind, or even the Bulova Lunar Pilot 43,5mm. Come to think of it, what a killer 3 piece collection of those two plus a PRX is. It's like getting a Submariner, a Speedmaster, and a Nautilus for around €2000. And it's a trio to suit all situations. I've worn the PRX on quite formal events, and it felt very natural, and the dial matched the lapis lazuli inserts on my cufflinks. I have no less than three dress watches, but the PRX seemed the way to go, and it got a lot of compliments. I also have an almost NOS Bulova Super-Seville, an early version with the shallow chapter ring (which is the most desirable variation from my research). And, yes, it is a straight Rolex Day-Date homage, but the fact that it is over forty years old, and it looks like it was unwrapped yesterday makes it an interesting piece, and a bit of a bargain for my collection. A collection where my goal is to get the most interesting bang for bucks, no matter if it is through appearance, complications, history, build quality, or whatnot. Almost all my pieces can also double as conversation pieces.
Anyone have any opinion on the movement used here? I hear along with the extended power reserve by reducing the beat rate they also added a plastic part to the escapement making servicing an issue. Would be interested to know if this is accurate. Being a Swatch brand I would have thought an easy ETA based movement that can easily be serviced would be an expectation but if that’s not the case due to modifications it would be great to know. Thanks
It’s definitely serviceable. It’s a modified ETA workhorse movement. If you send it in though, expect a swap. It’s just faster to swap in a working movement and harvest the parts from the movement in need of fixing/servicing, at this price point. Nothing about the plastic composite parts used here make servicing an issue, though. This is a real, fairly traditional, auto movement, not a Sistem51 type of situation.
Great piece. I had that exact one but sold it back as it wears too large (7.25 wrists). Tried the 35 several times and it’s way too small. Agreed about the logo. The original T logo from the original Seastar model would considerably elevate the look of the watch. Love the PRX branding and overall design.
I would rather get the new Seiko 5 for $475 than spending $600+ on this Ps- I like sporty watches and divers so perfect for me !!! Plus the green dial is soo good 🤌
They need to make the dial more reflective or pop under any lights sources because it is a bit finicky to get it to shine due to the understated dull tone of color choice that they decided to went in this installment/rendition version.
Imagine someone... making a 6-minute watch review and not saying a single word about accuracy. Now, the question arises: was it a watch that you reviewed then or a swiss marketing gimmick?
The unfortunate aspect is that the Tissot PRX Automatic contains plastic parts (the Powermatic 80, with its 23 jewels, includes plastic components), detracting from the overall quality and heritage of the watch collection. Instead, the PRX Quartz presents a preferable option.
I really don't like the endlinks. They completely ruin the proportions and fluidity for me. This could have been the Oysterquartz alternative I was looking for but the bracelet having oddly sized links just screws it up for me
how the fuck is this watch so beautiful! I got one as a gift and I was constantly giggling while watching this video! I have it in silicone strap, planning to get the stainless steel bracelet, any idea where to get the bracelet ( Cause tissot's website doesn't give an option to buy)
Finally after that random palooka riding bikes and scooters, and that narccistic woman that only talks about herself, we finally get a real watch person on Hodinkee talking about watches
Ok Hear me out...I'm a graphic designer. The kerning on "POWERMATIC" is terrible. The spacing between the O & W...ouch!!! also the "A & T"...wow!!! Great value watch.

The unfortunate aspect is that the Tissot PRX Automatic contains plastic parts (the Powermatic 80, with its 23 jewels, includes plastic components), detracting from the overall quality and heritage of the watch collection. Instead, the PRX Quartz presents a preferable option.
The newer powermatic 80 models have a lot of major components made in plastic , cheapens the whole thing
Hello, how can I collaborate with you
nice watches
I really don't like the endlinks. They completely ruin the proportions and fluidity for me. This could have been the Oysterquartz alternative I was looking for but the bracelet having oddly sized links just screws it up for me
how the fuck is this watch so beautiful! I got one as a gift and I was constantly giggling while watching this video! I have it in silicone strap, planning to get the stainless steel bracelet, any idea where to get the bracelet ( Cause tissot's website doesn't give an option to buy)
Who is this Power-Hunk?

Finally after that random palooka riding bikes and scooters, and that narccistic woman that only talks about herself, we finally get a real watch person on Hodinkee talking about watches
It's a hipster piece, and a bit too big for a three hander in my opinion. It should've been released in 38mm, 40mm for a chrono variant perhaps.
I don't understand what so special about this watch with it's dull vintage look
Ok Hear me out...I'm a graphic designer. The kerning on "POWERMATIC" is terrible. The spacing between the O & W...ouch!!! also the "A & T"...wow!!! Great value watch.
